Reduction potential of Ce4+/Ce+3 is 1.70 V, and Ni +2/Ni is (-0.23 V) . reduction potential value is more means it is oxidigsing agent. So Ce4+ will oxidise Ni to Ni+2
another reason is if we calculate gibbs free energy of this system it gives - ve . So processes is sponteniuos.
change in gibbs free energy = gibbs free change in Ce4+/Ce+3 - gibbs free change in Ni +2/Ni
= -nFE(ce4+/3+) - (-nFE (ni/ni+2)
= - 1*F*(1.70) - { -2*F*(-0.23)}
= -2.26 F
gibbs free energy is negative is processes is spontenious.
